five minutes before i need to leave the house
to teach a class
i set my coffee cup on a book on the edge of the counter
and
bam!
drop!
big bang!
it goes everywhere
all the way across the room
into tiny tiny drops and bits
i am amazed at the power that
sends these drops whizzing so far through space
and I think to myself
ok
i am going to love this
it happened
it's perfect
and i see that
it looks like all these different
things so far apart
and different shapes
and drips and splashes
and i see
it's all the same
just coffee and milk
from the same cup
One Thing
Love
all from the same cup
no matter how far the distance/separation seems
no matter what the form appears
no matter how dried up
or sloshy
and everywhere in between
there's only One Thing!
much love,
to all of you/me/God
